NOTE

Steering devices acting on ground-engaging wheels, endless tracks or the like and also applicable to aircraft are classified in B62D 1/00 and relevant subsequent groups; these groups take precedence over B64C; These elaborations also embrace steering of vehicles in general but applicable to land vehicles
